Found fresh catfish and thought I would fry it up. Marinated in buttermilk & Louisiana hot sauce.

Coating was yellow cornmeal/flour & spices.

Pretty large filets so had to get out the 12" cast iron. Tough to get the temperature right this try. But sure was tasty. 🍽️🍜🌶️

Fish sauce wings! With beer.

Made from this HTK recipe. I used the shallow frying method which is the standard, though she gives instructions/notes for deep frying & air frying methods as well. 🍽️🍜

Quite humble and unassuming. Often asked about inheriting the genes from his dad he did kinda say, maybe, but I've also been playing & working at it for 20 years. 🎶🎸

I fell back into some breakfast tacos. 🌮🌮 😄

Chorizo, eggs, onions and cilantro with a wedge of lime and Mexican style guacamole. Which is pretty much just smashed avocado with salt and lime juice. 🍽️🍜🌶️🇮🇹

A cool, drizzly start to Nov 1. So I heated up some leftover vegetable soup & topped it with a little olive oil and feta cheese. And made a turkey and provolone sandwich to go along with it. 🍽️🍜

Happy Gaelic Samhain, All Hallows Day/Eve (like a Christian Day of the Dead) or plain old Halloween. 🎃🧙‍♀️

This is a favorite video by a fan I return to each year. Wizard of Oz is my GOAT movie. 🎶

First time making a frittata. It was puffy in spots around the edge and was sticking to the bottom of the skillet. Time to re-season it.

It was still tasty though. 🍽️🍜

For Kinks fans.
I’ve just met Dave Davies of The Kinks!!

The 1st guitar sound that shook me, emanating from my childhood AM radio was Dave’s on “All Day And All Of The Night” - and I’ve now shaken the hand that played it.

Who’s coming out today? www.chillertheatre.com/gt/gtc4.htm

This looks so comforting. I definitely need to try Japanese curry, which seems odd that I haven't by now.
Japanese curry is a dish I grew to love and appreciate as an adult. I definitely took this meal for granted when I was a child, probably because my dad made it so often. Now, I crave it when I want comfort. Whipped up a batch of Japanese beef curry today to serve on top of some udon noodles 🍽️
